Just Lovely !

Beautiful property inside and out. Patrick was the primary owner I communicated with and was very kind and attentive. The interior was very spacious and so comfortable. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone. We did not use the pool area but it was set up so nicely and was perfect for a family! Large yard too. Great area and so close to town.

Perfect for Group Getaways!

This getaway house is spacious and perfect for a group of six. The pool was great, with different depths for everyone to enjoy. The whole town was calm and peaceful — a very relaxing atmosphere.We did spot two large cockroaches near the outdoor dining table, but luckily we didn’t see any inside the house. Overall, the vibe was great and we had a lot of fun.Some of our group members who prefer really hot showers were a bit disappointed, as the water didn’t get hotter than lukewarm.Still, the host was very responsive and quick to reply, which we really appreciated!

Weekend Stay at The Cottage

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend stay at The Cottage in Monroe. The beautiful historic home is clean and spacious with restored hardwood floors and high ceilings throughout. The wide front porch and well-equipped pool and patio area were especially relaxing. The beds were extremely comfortable, and our hosts supplied everything we needed for a pleasant stay. The downtown Monroe area is walkable with fabulous restaurants and cute shops. I highly recommend Jordan and Patrick as your hosts!

Great getaway

Our stay was great. The property is awesome. We should have asked how deep the pool was before hand. The deepest point is probably 7 feet. We’re not excellent swimmers so we just stayed by the steps most of the time. I would definitely book This property again. The location was great too.
